Muslim charged in mosque fire

"Because of the recent spike in hate incidents targeting mosques nationwide, we urge law enforcement authorities to investigate a possible bias motive for this fire," said CAIR-Houston Executive Director Mustafaa Carroll.

A recent study found that hate crimes targeting Muslims, their mosques and businesses have tripled this year with most of the incidents occurring in recent weeks. Vandalized mosques have been reported in California, Arizona and Georgia.

Today police arrested Gary Nathaniel Moore, 37, of Houston, saying he started the fire. He is a Muslim who attended the church five times a day to pray, seven days a week for five years, the Houston Chronicle reported.

Expecting an apology from CAIR? We shall see.

This is another reason to wait for facts before commenting on a crime.

Now, whenever we get one of these "hate crimes" I just assume it's an inside job. How many of these cases have been perpetrated by one the victimization/identity groups against their own in order to gin up anger against whitey/America/heterosexuals. A bunch.
